Shape the Future of Microsoft Security at Pax8

Pax8 is looking for a passionate Microsoft Alliances Security Specialist to help accelerate Microsoft Security growth across Australia. If you're excited by partner engagement, demand generation, cloud innovation, and helping Managed Service Providers build thriving Microsoft security practices, this is an opportunity to make a genuine impact while growing your career with one of the world's fastest-growing cloud marketplaces.

Why This Role Matters

This is far more than a partner-facing specialist role. You'll become a trusted advisor to Managed Service Providers, helping them unlock the full value of Microsoft's security ecosystem while driving measurable business outcomes.

As Pax8 continues its AI-powered evolution, you'll be at the forefront of helping partners adopt new technologies, scale go-to-market initiatives, build modern security practices, and create stronger customer engagement strategies. You'll grow alongside emerging technologies, innovative programs, and a rapidly expanding global business.

About Pax8

Pax8 is redefining cloud commerce through the managed intelligence marketplace. Our mission is to empower small businesses through smarter technology by connecting our partners with the world's leading cloud solutions and services.

With more than 39,000 partners globally and over 130 vendor relationships, we are helping businesses modernize through cloud innovation, security, AI and automation. We are proud of our award-winning culture, commitment to learning, and belief that business is personal.

How You'll Make an Impact





- Enable Microsoft-focused growth strategies that help Managed Service Providers acquire new customers and expand their security practices.
- Support partners in developing compelling security offerings tailored to customer needs and market opportunities.
- Help partners maximize Microsoft investments by leveraging available programs, incentives, funding opportunities, and go-to-market resources.
- Use data-driven insights and targeting tools to uncover upsell, cross-sell, and new customer opportunities.
- Establish strong operational rhythms with partners and Microsoft stakeholders to drive accountability, engagement, and program adoption.
- Lead scalable demand generation and partner activation initiatives across webinars, marketing campaigns, events, email, and social channels.
- Act as a trusted advisor, translating complex Microsoft programs into actionable growth opportunities for partners.
- Collaborate across internal teams to deliver exceptional partner experiences and measurable business outcomes.

The Impact You'll Have

Your work will directly influence the growth and success of both Pax8 and our Managed Service Provider community. By helping partners strengthen their Microsoft Security practices, you'll drive customer acquisition, increase solution adoption,



and accelerate security outcomes for thousands of businesses across Australia.

What Makes You Successful

We're looking for someone who combines commercial awareness, relationship-building expertise, and a passion for technology.

You'll bring:

- Proven experience in technology sales, marketing, alliances, business development, or partner engagement.
- Experience working within the Microsoft ecosystem, a technology vendor, managed service provider, telecommunications organisation, or cloud-focused business.
